It's a floating top 10 so it could easily change:
Cairns
Brash
Laraque
Belak
Johnson
Oliwa
Worrel
Fedoruk
Peters
Boulerice

No Domi, Simon, or Parker. I haven't seen or heard enough from these 3 to warrant a spot.

I refuse to put Brashear or Laracque on my list because they dont fight enough, their cards are crappy, and they are involved in too many hugfests. Have course it's only my opinion.

[Dr Hook]

1. Laraque (no losses this season, Edge to May in their fight this season)
2. Cairns (Active, Good Record)
3. Brash (good record, but not active)
4. Johnson (quite a turnaround for him)
5. Peters (best fight card in the NHL, good record)
6. Belak (mediocre season IMO)
7. Simon (Another turnaround, card needs a little better competition but who's complaining)
8. Parker (not having quite the season that he was expected to have)
9. Peat (Average season, decent card)
10. Boulerice (Good showing for him after KO, maybe he moves up after a few more fights)

[PinoyRon51]

Laraque
Brashear
Cairns
Peters
Johnson
Simon
Hordichuk
Oliwa
Shelley
Worrell( would be #2 if played tha whole year also if was in shape!)

[BigGeorges37]

So far this season:

1- Brashear: no losses, and some impressive wins
2- Laraque: no losses either(not even to May Dr Hook), but has been hampered by injuries and poor play which has seen him watch from the skybox on a few occasions
3- Cairns: some destructive wins, however early struggles against Peters, Buchberger and McKenna are the only thing keeping him from being higher
4- Johnson: impressive card, and some impressive wins- especially destroying Peters
5- Peters: impressive rookie campaign with some good wins over the likes of Cairns, Domi, Johnson, Langdon etc.
6- Erskine: good year so far, if only he could get more playing time
7- Belak: solid year, not as good as last season, but some good wins nonetheless
8- Simon: a good year from the former king
9- Parker: has shown flashes this season, but not enough to put him higher on my list
10- Boulerice: good comeback year for him after Downey smoked him last year
